AU$282.00Price
Accurately detect birefringence, strain, and optic character with the Bench Polariscope. Built for professional gem labs, it includes LED illumination, rotatable filters, and a conoscope for interference figure viewing.
Set included:
  • 1 x Bench Type / Desktop Polariscope
  • 1 x English User Manual
  • 2 x Glass rotatable filters

    The Bench-Top Polariscope is a high-precision gemological instrument used to evaluate birefringence, optical strain, and the refractive nature of gemstones. Ideal for professional gemologists, educators, and lab technicians, this polariscope provides a dependable, clear view of optical behavior in a variety of gemstones, including moissanite, amethyst, diamonds, and more.

    Constructed with a durable metal housing, the GS-PS1 features two rotatable polarizing filters (analyzer and polarizer) and a rotating sample platform, allowing precise alignment and testing of both loose and mounted stones. The built-in AC-powered LED light source ensures bright, consistent illumination—no more replacing bulbs or fuses.

    Included is a conoscope (interference ball), which allows users to view optic interference figures, a critical function for analyzing optic sign and character in doubly refractive materials.

    Whether you're diagnosing synthetic vs. natural gems, detecting strain in diamonds, or teaching optical mineralogy, the GS-PS1 is a reliable and advanced benchtop tool for accurate results.
